What is PDF Professional Suite?
PDF Professional Suite is a native Mac productivity app for working with PDF documents. It helps users read PDFs, add annotations, fill forms, sign files, convert documents into other formats, and organize pages in one place. Common uses include reviewing contracts, marking up study materials, combining files, extracting pages, and preparing documents for sharing or printing. The app also includes OCR for text extraction from scanned PDFs, along with password and permission controls for protected documents. Multi-tab reading, presentation tools, bookmarks, and export options make it useful for both everyday document handling and more involved PDF workflows.

Safety overview
Status: Mostly safe
PDF Professional Suite is a legitimate document app for macOS. Access to your files is expected for opening, editing, converting, and exporting PDFs, and those actions can change document contents if you save over the original file. When working with important paperwork, keep a backup copy before making bulk edits, OCR changes, or page reorganization. The App Store listing states that the developer does not collect data from this app, but documents you open may still contain sensitive information, so handle confidential files with normal care.
Recommendation: Keep PDF Professional Suite if you use it for reading, editing, signing, or converting PDFs on your Mac. If you no longer use it, you can remove it like any other app, but save any important exported files or document templates first.
